We’ve shown you some awesome smartphone mounts you can buy, but if you’d rather DIY, you can have a strong, sturdy car mount for your phone with a few magnets and our old friend Sugru.

Sharing great moments (or just snippets of your life) with friends or loved ones has never been easier, and a new class of live streaming app makes it possible for them to join you in real time. Of those apps, we think Periscope is the best today, and has the most potential for the near future.
